"The Florida Senate has approved the controversial parental rights legislation governing classroom instruction on LGBTQ matters, dubbed the “Don’t Say Gay” bill by opponents. Two Republican legislators, Sens. Jeff Brandes and Jennifer Bradley, broke from their party and voted against the bill. While Brandes had already expressed frustration with the bill, Bradley decided to vote down on it out of concern “about the message it sends.”
Other supporters got more personal about LBGTQ issues, with Miami-Dade Republican Sen. Ileana Garcia sharing about a family member who was transgender, insisting that “gay is not a permanent thing, LGBT is not a permanent thing.” Ocala Republican Sen. Dennis Baxley, who filed the Senate version of the bill; came under fire during debate for comments he made Monday during questions, saying that he brought the bill because there is a cultural shift encouraging students to “come out.” Palm Beach Democratic Sen. Lori Berman called Baxley on the comment during debate. “We heard yesterday that the genesis of this bill was to try and prevent what the sponsor believes to be a problem, that somehow more and more children are becoming gay, So let’s be clear, that’s what this bill is about.”
Yes, the bill is designed to stop all of these kids from being groomed and indoctrinated and turned into a bunch of trannies, queers and fags.
that is a blatant lie and it is not in any curriculum in the country. It is based on you godbotherer hypocrites who want to control what everyone thinks. Fuck you and your god shit. Dont teach kids what you think. Teach them to think for themselves.
Furthermore, you don't mind teaching them about immaculate conception, spirits and silly bloody gods, none if which is real.
At least the debate is over something that is real
..I don't know why Dems thought this was such a gotcha moment....as someone said, most early forms of sexual education starts by at least 5th or 6th grade -- so if a kid at that point learns that homosexuality is a thing; don't teach him about how great that is..
no. take him home and thrash the shit out of him and ensure that gid will punish him. Give him the full religious work over. Threaten him with aids etc. Give him both barrels and make him repent. Thats the spirit you hypocrite arseholes.v
.or make some faggy kid feel brave enough to come out and identify as gay like his some sort of hero...
They do it every day son. The point us you don't like it nor did any dem agenda instigate it. They should be learning about these things instead of you filling them with God shit.v
.kids need to keep that crap to themselves until they are out of school altogether but most definitely keep it to themselves when they are in 4th, 5th, 6th grades...
really. That would solve it. Shoot the messenger ay? Why don't you put your kids in a private school where sex isn't mentioned. Probably a religious monastery where the priests can root them every night. They'll know about it then
.These people are trying to make kids gay by the time they are born....what is their end game?
They are not trying yo make them gay. Its your filthy bullshit religion which opposes it. You don't even know what your god wants.
You are a bigoted hate filled ignoramus. Its nothing to do with dems.
Here's a little tip. Approximately half the gats etc in the country come from republican religious families like yours. What's wrong with that? Nothing.
Its their freedom, the one you so fiercely protect, they want to exercise. But no.
Restrain them from an early age. Let them become closet poofters and end up sexual deviants. Then who is responsible you dickhead.
